Started off by putting the placket in the front of the shirt, as per yesterday's practice. Next stitched the shoulder seams and put in the shoulder gussets. Sleeves gathered up and attached and then the underarm gusset went in (a bit tricky) and arm and side seams stitched. Final two gussets went in at the bottom of the side seam and then plackets at the wrist. Next the collar and cuffs were prepared and the neckline gathered up for the collar to be attached. Doesn't look much typed up but this took all day! The cuffs still need to be attached and then button holes in the plackets but that's for another day. Very satisfying having a garment nearly finished. Pictures below show before and after...
